Your friend needs to change the password immediately, or contact Yahoo to get the account removed

i may be young but i go to a high school with really high security standards on our email passwords. so here is my little piece of advice... contact YAHOO! and change the password. the tips of the trade for creating a very secure password is to have, CAPITAL letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and punctuation. any 3/4 is good. and it should be more than 7 letters long. also, I would suggest that he change his passwords to any account that the "worker" had access to on his computer. Finally, have your friend change his password about every 3-4 months or so to ensure security. and if none of this works then come up with a "secret" question you can ask your friend when you talk to him online and already know the answer.

Change the password to all accounts the tech has access to. Use strong passwords with letters, numbers and punctuation marks

The original owner should change the password. This way the other person will not be using others account.

Change the password and secret question answer. Remember to ask him to log out of his account whenever he's not using his pc. Furthermore, do not set "remember password" on his email account.

Do ALL of the above, but also report to the FBI. I'm sure they will want to meet the person.
